Characteristics of the handball game at the senior’s level in the current time period

Abstract

In order to properly prepare a team, it is necessary to act physically, technically, tactically and motivationally to learn to analyze the situations of the game and to solve them in complex conditions. Achieving sporting performance is based on the implementation of an optimal game strategy and concept, from which game models are developed and training models are tailored according to the potential of the team. In order to achieve performance in handball, efficiency is an essential part, and this largely depends on the handball player's experience and his ability to concentrate on key moments of matches. The increasing number of scored goals is a consequence of the increasing number of attacks, the reduction of the duration of the attack and the marking of goals on the counterattack; all these rely on the principles of dynamic and fast pace game. To meet these requirements in the current handball, players have to face the new physical, technical and tactical demands required by the fast and sustained rhythm of the game. The difference in game is done by individual or small group actions and where decisional speed is essential in gaining efficiency and performance, so workouts must focus on: improving the technique and individual tactics; creating the ability to solve the 1-to- 1 relationship in attack and defence; compliance with the established tactical plan; to improve collaboration on small groups (2 to 2, 3 to 3).
